Question

6 multiple choice 10 points m(-5,4) n(-2,3) l(-4,2) l(-4,-2) n(-2,-3) m(-5,-4) what is the rule for the reflection? (x,y)→(-x,y) (x,y)→(-x,-y) (x,y)→(x,-y) (x,y)→(x,y)

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze point - coordinate changes

Take point L(-4, 2) and its image L'(-4, -2). The x - coordinate remains the same (-4), and the y - coordinate changes from 2 to - 2. The same is true for other points like M(-5, 4) and M'(-5, -4), N(-2, 3) and N'(-2, -3).

Step2: Determine the reflection rule

When a point (x, y) is reflected over the x - axis, the rule is (x, y)→(x, -y).

Answer:

C. (x, y)→(x, -y)
